Caleb worked so hard yesterday and at hockey practice that he just couldn't stay awake for the end of the Ams hockey game last night. Besides missing the Ams victorious shoot-out win, he missed Kruise Reddick being named #1 Player of the Game! For those who don't know, Kruise lives with Dan & Retta (our good family friends) during the season, so Caleb thinks he is just "IT!" Well, Kruise is very nice and always thinking of Caleb, so he was looking for Caleb after the game because the #1 star gets to autograph a stick and then give it away to some lucky young kid in the stands. Long story short, Caleb sleeps like the dead and could not be roused (even for a hockey stick) so my Dad carried him over on his shoulder and got the stick from Kruise.
Here he is passed out after the game
He even woke up once during the middle of the night to go potty and noticed the stick sitting against the wall (I knew he would). But he was still in his sleep walking stupor and only had time to mumble "hey, how'd I get that stick?"
But you better beleive it was ON when he finally woke up this morning. His reaction was somewhere between his birthday and Christmas morning!
Checking out the autograph
Caleb says:
"Thanks, Kruise...you're the best!! Good luck against Spokane tonight!"
P.S. "I used the other stick you gave me at practice last night--it works great--I scored a SWEET goal!"
